Heated rear window/sideview mirrors
This function demists/de-ices the rear window and sideview mirrors. The LED in the switch will light up to indicate
that the heating function is engaged. See page 36
for additional information on this function.
CAUTION:
Never use ice scrapers made of metal as they can easily scratch the mirror surface.
pg. 46 Electronic Climate Control (ECC) - manual settings
Recirculation (see also page 47)
Press this switch to engage the recirculation function (air in the passenger compartment recirculates - no fresh air
enters the compartment). The LED in the switch will light up to indicate that the function is engaged.
Use this function if the outside air is contaminated with exhaust gases, smoke, etc or to heat/cool the car quickly.
Recirculation should not be used for more than 15 minutes. If your windows begin to fog or mist, make sure that the
recirculation function is switched off.
Selecting Defroster automatically switches recirculation off.
Timer function: (Cars with Interior Air Quality system have no timer function) Pressing and holding the switch for at
least 3 seconds activates a timer function. The LED in the switch will flash for approximately 5 seconds. Recirculation
will then always operate for periods of 5 to 12 minutes, depending on the ambient temperature, after which it will
switch off automatically. Pressing the switch at any time during the recirculation period will disengage the function
and allow fresh air into the passenger compartment. Press and hold the switch again for at least 3 seconds to return the
button to its original function (i.e., recirculation will remain on until you switch it off).
Blower control
Turn the control clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the blower speed. Pressing the AUTO switch
will automatically regulate blower speed and override manual adjustment.
NOTE: Turning the blower control counterclockwise as far as possible (an orange LED next to the control will light
up) will turn both the blower and the air conditioning off.

Courtesy light
The courtesy light can be turned on or off by pressing the button. The light also has a timer function which turns the
light on for 30 seconds if:
You unlock the car from the outside with the key or remote control.
You switch off the ignition (turn the key to position 0). The courtesy light stays on for 10 minutes if one of the doors
is left open after the car is unlocked. The courtesy light switches off if:
The engine is started.
The car is locked from the outside with the key or remote control.
The interior courtesy light can be switched on or off at any time by pressing the center button in the panel above the
rearview mirror. When switched on with the engine off, the light will stay on for 10 minutes. When switched on with
the engine running, the light will stay on indefinitely. The light may be switched off at any time by pressing the center
button a second time.
The courtesy light timer periods can be changed. Consult your Volvo retailer.
Overriding the Interior Courtesy Lights
Normally if a car door is left open with the engine turned off, the interior courtesy light will stay on for 10 minutes.
If a car door is left open or the interior courtesy lights are turned on while the engine is left running, the interior
courtesy lights will stay on indefinitely.
At times, you may wish to be assured that the courtesy lights will stay off regardless of door or tailgate position.
To switch off the interior and tailgate courtesy lights indefinitely, press and hold the center button in the panel above
the rearview mirror for 3 seconds. The courtesy lights will go off and remain off until the center button is pressed
again.

The next time you unlock the driver's door with the same remote control (the one you used to lock the doors with)
and open the driver's door, the driver's seat and sideview mirrors will automatically move to the position in which you
left them. The seat/mirrors will move to this position even if someone else has adjusted them since you last drove the
car.
NOTE:
This feature will work in the same way with all of the remote control transmitters (up to 3) that you use with your
car.
This feature will not function if you lock your car with the key.
pg. 72 Remote keyless entry system
Remote keyless entry system - replacing batteries
If the range of the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this indicates that the battery is weak and should be replaced. To
replace the battery
Remove the screw on the transmitter cover with a small screwdriver
Remove the cover carefully pressing it rearward/upward
Replace the battery with a new 3-volt, CR 2032 battery. The battery should be inserted with the minus side upward.
Avoid touching the contact surfaces of the battery with your fingers.
Reinstall the cover and tighten the screw to help protect the transmitter.
NOTE: The old battery should be disposed of properly at a recycling center or at your Volvo retailer.
WARNING!
Volvo does not recommend using the transmitter to lock the doors from inside the car. The alarm would be activated
and would sound when one of the doors is opened. The doors must not be locked using the remote transmitter while
the vehicle is occupied. In case of an accident, this may hinder rapid access to the occupants of the vehicle. The
alarm will also sound.

spray into the locks.
When washing or steam cleaning the engine, avoid spraying water or steam directly on the electrical components or
toward the rear side of the engine.
After cleaning the engine, the spark plug wells should be inspected for water and blown dry if necessary. Suitable
detergents: Special car washing detergents should be used. Mix according to manufacturer's instructions. Bumpers:
The bumpers are painted. Wash the bumpers with the same cleaning agent used on the rest of the car. Never clean the
bumpers with gasoline or paint thinner. Difficult spots can be removed with denatured alcohol. To avoid scratches, do
not dry the bumpers with paper.
WARNING!
When the car is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes several times in order to remove any
moisture from the brake linings.
Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is warm. This constitutes a fire risk.
pg. 120 Washing the car, Cleaning the upholstery
Automatic washing - simple and quick
We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first six months (because the
paint will not have hardened sufficiently).
An automatic wash is a simple and quick way to clean your car, but it is worth remembering that it may not be as
thorough as when you yourself go over the car with sponge and water. Keeping the underbody clean is most important,
especially in the winter. Some automatic washers do not have facilities for washing the underbody.
Before driving into an automatic wash, make sure that side view mirrors, auxiliary lamps, etc, are secure, otherwise
there is risk of the machine dislodging them.
Polishing and waxing
Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery. However, waxing may be beneficial.
Before applying polish or wax the car must be washed and dried. Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar
remover. Difficult spots may require a fine rubbing compound.
After polishing, use liquid or paste wax.
Several commercially available products contain both polish and wax.
Waxing alone does not substitute for polishing of a dull surface.
A wide range of polymer-based car waxes can be purchased today. These waxes are easy to use and produce a long-
lasting, high-gloss finish that protects the bodywork against oxidation, road dirt and fading.
Do not polish or wax your car in direct sunlight (the surface of the car should not be warmer than 113° F (45° C).
Cleaning the upholstery
The fabric can be cleaned with soapy water or a detergent. For more difficult spots caused by oil, ice cream, shoe
polish, grease, etc., use a clothing/fabric stain remover.
The plastic in the upholstery can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution.
Leather upholstery/suede-like upholstery (alcanteraª) can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. For
more difficult spots, Volvo offers a leather care kit.
Under no circumstances should gasoline, naphtha or similar cleaning agents be used on the plastic or the
